tying down

Thanks for the responses. Yes, I have used the Claw and it could probably hold down a Sherman Tank. Bit chunky for a Eurofox at 10 lbs, so I am making a simplified version based on Camping nails and...

Keeping up an SPA IR or IMC rating

As an ex-commercial pilot I let my ATPL lapse and took out a PPL on the basis that it would be cheaper in the long run to keep up my medical.
